The NeiJing Tu (the Inner Pathways) is a powerful 19th century Daoist chart that is often not well understood outside of the Daoist community. In this practical guide, the author reveals the layered meanings of the descriptive and instructional wisdom held within the chart through translation and commentary on the poems and explanations of the elements of the image. For Daoist arts and Chinese medicine practitioners, this chart provides a blueprint of the energetic and spiritual layers of self and body including the power of alignment and attunement with nature on the path to Enlightenment. For the first time, the specific details of the chart are described in easy language with simple practice instructions associated with the different stages of the Daoist Inner Alchemy.
